      yeah in all honesty i love that allroad. its so buttery smooth, quiet and pulls like a freight train. I took it from NYC to Montreal a couple wks ago (12hrs roundtrip), and it performed great. I need to do a tb job....but for right now I'm just enjoying it until something catastrophic comes along....b/c i know it will. lol

        Hahaha! The goal is to catch it before your engine blows up. This is the 2.7t right? You'll always be fixing something. I have the v6 and I m is they are similar, only mine has no turbos.

          Sup Anthony! Glad to see this thread is still going. I'll be honest, I was tempted by this S4 Avant very recently:




          No space, budget, or justification for two cars, however (:( / ;))

              Finally got the car back and man did they knock it out of the park. The shop I used took it upon themselves to cut the whole battery tray out and fabricate a whole new section wo even telling me. I initially just wanted the rust shaved down and cleaned up but they went above and beyond. They also fixed my sunroof that didn't open and replaced the panel and any little rust spots they saw throughout the car. Repainted the entire front end including both doors side skirts and flares due to rock chips!

              Car never looked better! Pics don't do it justice

                          Had the shop repaint a donor alpine white side passenger mirror. They got it right by painting it inside so it's silver inside out. Battery tray repair was done flawlessly. Even replicated the streaks and texture

                          Inside of the lower passenger door had rust. They grinded it down and seam sealed it like factory.
